The Habit Of Going The Extra Mile
In order for one to be successful, one would need to work earnestly, think positively, develop good character, continue to learn and be prepared to go the extra mile. Nothing extraordinary will be achieved unless one is prepared to go the extra mile.
“Do more than is required.
What is the distance between someone who achieves their goals consistently and those who spend their lives and careers merely following?
The extra mile.” - Gary Ryan Blair
“Never neglect the little things. Never skimp on that extra effort, that additional few minutes, that soft word of praise or thanks, that delivery of the very best that you can do.
It does not matter what others think, it is of prime importance, however, what you think about you. You can never do your best, which should always be your trademark, if you are cutting corners and shirking responsibilities. You are special. Act it. Never neglect the little things.” - Og Mandino
"And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two." - Matthew 5:41
“The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra.” - Jimmy Johnson
Always remember to deliver more than what you are getting paid to do!

Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for your continued support and interest in what I do.
I can see you put this into practice too! The effort you put in to change the template or design of your blog themes tell that!

Great post. This is a great phrase “The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra.” If we want to be extraordinary, we do little extra things that others don't. Hope that we will remember this phrase and put it into action.
